  1. Chemical Reactions

  2. I. What is a chemical reaction? Definition: the process by which one or more substances are rearranged to form different substances. Another name for a chemical change.

  3. A. How can you tell a chemical reaction has taken place? Evidence? 1.Release of gas

  4. A. How can you tell a chemical reaction has taken place? Evidence? 2. Color changes 3. Formation of a precipitate

  5. A. How can you tell a chemical reaction has taken place? Evidence? 4. Changes in heat and light (temperature change)

  6. B. Chemical reactions release or absorb energy Where does the energy come from? Breaking and forming chemical bonds C. Atoms are rearranged in a chemical change This is where new substances come from

  7. D. Particles must collide for a chemical reaction to occur They must collide with enough energy

  8. Exothermic Reactions Release Energy

  9. II. Representing Chemical Reactions? A. Atoms and mass are conserved H2(g) + O2 (g)  H2O(l) Reactants Products Law of conservation of mass? 18g? 2 + 32 = 34g

  10. B. Balancing Equations (coefficients indicate amounts of reactants and products) H2(g) + O2 (g)  H2O(l) rules: 1. write theequation for reactants and products *make sure you have the correct formulas (or skeleton equation) for the reactants and products

  11. B. Balancing Equations (coefficients indicate amounts of reactants and products) H2(g) + O2 (g)  H2O(l) 2 2 2. count the atoms of each elements for both sides of the equation reactants and products 3. use coefficients to balance equations (do H and O last!)

  12. H2(g) + O2 (g)  H2O(l) 2 2 2. count the atoms of each elements for both sides of the equation reactants and products 3. use coefficients to balance equations (do H and O last!) 4. write the coefficients in their lowest possible ratio

  13. Write a Balanced Equation 2 2 H2O (g) CH4(g) + ?  ? + ? O2(g) CO2(g)

  14. Balanced equations tell us:

  15. Example: Potassium chromate + lead(II) nitrate  potassium nitrate + lead (II) chromate K2CrO4 + Pb(NO3) 2  KNO3 + PbCrO4 2

  16. Example: Sodium hydroxide + copper (II) sulfate  sodium sulfate + copper (II) hydroxide NaOH+ CuSO4 2 Na2SO4 + Cu(OH)2

  17. Example: Magnesium metal + hydrochloric acid  hydrogen gas + magnesium chloride Mg(s)+ HCl(aq) 2 H2(g)+ MgCl2(s)

  18. III. What information is in an equation? A.     Equations as instructions Describes process, identifies reactants, products, amounts and molar ratios
